TLR Typhon buggy

This started as a collection of left over parts from my GT build but has become my preferred build due to lack of places for speed runs around me. It has turned into something that is a blast to drive till it slings a part.

General RC Information

In short this was my first RC as an adult. I bought it as a regular 6s Typhon with a red and black body. It got upgraded to a TLR version through Jennys RC and eventually made a 103mph pass on stock electronics. At this point I wanted the scorched RC chassis it now has and when I started this next phase of upgrades I looked over and saw this pile of parts and said I think with some electronics I have a second car.
I threw the parts I had together using parts that just weren't the best of what I had (for speed run reasons) and combined those with parts some of the Scorched RC parts I opted not to use and I had a buggy.
Current parts include;
* Tekin esc and 2250 motor
* Protek 155s servo
* Scorched RC Gold ball ends and front and rear aluminum hubs
* Hot Racing bulkheads and center dif and motor mount
* Carbon fiber front shock tower and steering cover.
* Losi 8 Side skirts (almost a direct fit but allow better battery options)
* Proline Body and rear wing
* All bearings have been cleaned and the only seals are the exposed seals.

Challenges Faced
Vibrations. It drives great but spits a screw out before using a battery almost every time, even with lock tight. Unlike my other 10 cars.
